Hispanic Hotel Owners Association’s Second Hotel Investment Seminar for High Net-worth Latinos Attracts Twice the Expected Attendance

“The Hispanic Hotel Owners Association HHOA, a recently-formed and rapidly growing non-profit organization, announced today that attendance of more than 60 participants at its first Hotel Investment Series doubled the initial projections. The seminar’s success prompted sponsoring brands to increase their current level of investment to fund more events. A second seminar is in the preliminary planning stages for the West Coast before the end of summer.

“The rapidly growing interest in our Hotel Investment Series and in HHOA’s mission is not a surprise,” said Angela Gonzalez-Rowe, president and founder of Hispanic Hotel Owners Association. “It demonstrates the very clear need for a Latino entry point into an industry where they are grossly underrepresented among the management and ownership ranks. Attendees were high-net worth Hispanics with the means to invest in the hotel industry, from the U.S., as well as from Argentina, Aruba and Colombia. The international participation, the high-profile speakers and the increased commitment of funds by sponsors indicate that HHOA has struck a responsive chord in this industry.””
